Modern Child Had Told Her Story and
Would Amend It In Only
One Way.
She wb an extreme example of
the modem child. Although her
yenrs wore few, she seemed tho per
fect mistress of every situation.
Dressed in on extreme frock, she re
clined gracefully in a chair, enter
taining the caller until her mother
appenred.
"I see you like cats," said the
caller, who had observed two white
kittens tumbling about the rug in
the next room.
"Oh, yes, in reason," answered the
modern one in her blase voice. "I
do not object to two, or even three,
cats. But when you have as many as
the woman who had the place next to
us at the seashore lost summer, it
becomes annoying."
"Did she have too many pets?"
"She had 50 eats. Fifty large,
black eats. They ueed to sit in a row
on our front lawn every evening;, and
you could see their green eyes gleam'
jng a mile away. It was too uncanny."
"Oh, Jessio," exclaimed the visitor
involuntarily. "You're exaggerating
dreadfully. Ao woman ever had 50
cats."
Jessie stared levelly into the call
er's eves.
"Or more," she said nonchalantly.
"Fifty or moro."

YOU as a good housekeeper are particular about the
coffee you buy. Experience has taught you. that an
expensive percolator, a dainty coffee service or a skilled
cook cannot of themselves make good coffee. Hence
you buy only that coffee whose quality is assured.
Just as surely as coffee to be fragrantly delicious must originate
from a good bean, correctly and freshly ground, so also the best
crude petroleum and careful scientific refining are necessary to a
high-grade kerosene. There is such a kerosene it's
ATLANTIC ,
i ii Hi
It's the one kerosene you can buy by name. It will leave no soot
and it doesn't smoke. It burns without smell, shedding an even,
soft yet brilliant light, and, when put in a stove or heater, it gives
quick, certain results at a low fuel cost.
But, with all these qualities, its price is identical with the unknown
and possibly poorly refined kind. Ask for Atlantic Rayolight Oil
and then you can be certain you're buying the best at a price you'd
pay for the ordinary product.

Give your rubber plants a bath of
Atlantic Rayolight Oil and tepid
water it makes them glossy and
beautiful and kills the bugs that would
otherwise eventually wither them up.
That's only one use out of many.
' What do you do with kerosene ? If
you've got a good use, perhaps you
may be able to exchange it for a beauti
ful stove. See these advertisements.
